On this day, Harmonie Lodge presented a 2nd Degree for 6 worthy Entered Apprentices in front of Right Wor. Jeffrey M. Williamson and Most Wor. William J. Thomas, Grand Master. We also welcomed our Brothers from Ionic Lodge No. 88 , P.H.A. The evening opened with a wonderful dinner prepared by Harmonie’s Bro.

We also welcomed a delegation from our Sister Lodge in Fort Erie, Palmer Lodge No. 372.
